Television shows don’t always make successful transitions to the big screen. (Ahem, Dragnet!) But there are some cinematic remakes that are actually better than their small-screen predecessors. The Fugitive won Tommy Lee Jones an Oscar. The Untouchables did the same for Sean Connery. Even The Addams Family got Anjelica Huston nominated for a Golden Globe. Clearly, there’s no dearth of quality flicks that have leaped gracefully from small screen to big screen. So which adaptation is the best?
